The San Antonio Spurs are facing the defending NBA champion Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals on Friday night. And they might have to do it without their star rookie. Dylan Harper suffered an adductor injury during Game 2 and will be a game-time decision for Game 3, according to report by ESPN's Shams Charania.

Harper, the former Don Bosco and Rutgers standout and No. 2 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, has been a key contributor for the Spurs, filling in for the injured Deโ€™Aaron Fox. He was a factor in the Spurs' Game 1 double-overtime victory over the Thunder with 24 points, 11 rebounds, seven steals and six assists in playing 47 minutes.
